[Document from Bill McCarter to Beverly Fletcher, March 26, 1991]

Photocopy of a document from Bill McCarter, Co-Director of North Texas Institute for Educators on the Visual Arts, to Beverly Fletcher. The document is separated into two sections, the first section being about Dr. Jack Davis, Provost of UNT and a major figure in Art Education having won many awards for his service to the discipline of art education along with Dr. Bill McCarter, Regents Professor at UNT. Both Davis and McCarter are co-directors of NTIEVA, North Texas Institute for Educators on the Visual Arts, an institute funding by matching grants from the Getty Center, Amon Carter Foundation and others. The second part of the letter is about their program, DBAE, the approach to art education by involve art specialists and classroom teachers in expanding art to include not only art production but critical thinking, judgement and other formalities. The hand-written note at the bottom reads, "Bev. we need overhead projector - thanks."

Investigation of strain birefringence and wavefront distortion in 001 plates of KD sub 2 PO sub 4 (open access)

Investigation of strain birefringence and wavefront distortion in 001 plates of KD sub 2 PO sub 4

When 001 plates of KD{sub 2}PO{sub 4} (KD*P) are used in Pockels cells, strain induced refractive index variations result in beam depolarization and transmitted wavefront distortion. The depolarization is determined by the induced birefringence while the wavefront distortion is controlled by the average index shift. Here we show that the birefringence is determined by the shear stress in the xy-plane of the crystal while the average index shift depends only on the normal stresses. Furthermore, for depolarization losses of 0.1 to 1.0% and wavefront distortion of 0.1 to 1.0{lambda}, the critical range of stress is 10{sup 5} to 10{sup 6} Pa. We also present measured depolarization loss and wavefront distortion profiles for 5, 16 and 27cm, 95% deuterated, KD*P crystals. Using the analysis described above we show that the maximum internal stresses in the crystals are within the critical range, but that the area averaged stresses are substantially lower. We find that crystals from different locations along the length of a boule have similar strain birefringence and wavefront distortion profiles indicating that the growth conditions which generate the internal strain persist throughout much of the growth history of the boule. Finally, we discuss potential sources of strain in KD*P. 8 …

The q q meson states with J sup PC = 2 sup ++ and 0 sup ++ (open access)

The q q meson states with J sup PC = 2 sup ++ and 0 sup ++

The lowest mesons made up of a light quark and a strange quark produced from a K beam show a good agreement with expectations of the quark model. This good agreement leads to the prediction of the light isoscalar and isovector states and the isoscalar s{bar s} states. Except for one mystery The X(1590) the 2{sup ++} states seems to be well described by the expected ideally mixed q{bar q} states up to 2. 0 GeV. Above 2.0 GeV a new degree of freedom seems to be excited with respect to the breakdown of the OZI rule in production of 2{sup ++} resonances that decay into {phi}{phi}. This is to be contrasted with the situation for the O{sup ++} isoscalar states which seems to show a new degree of freedom for its mesons in its ground state. One might conclude that since the O{sup ++} glueball is predicted by lattice calculations to be degenerate with the s{bar s} O{sup ++} meson, that the very unusual assortment of isoscalar O{sup ++} mesons are due to glueball mixing.

Department management of the Ross Aviation, Inc. , contract aircraft major spare parts inventory, Albuquerque, New Mexico (open access)

Department management of the Ross Aviation, Inc. , contract aircraft major spare parts inventory, Albuquerque, New Mexico

The purpose of this audit was to determine whether the Department of Energy's (Department) management of its contract with Ross Aviation, Inc. (Ross) provided reasonable assurance that the inventory of aircraft major spare parts at Ross was economical and efficient. The audit disclosed that approximately $447,000 (acquisition and interest carrying costs) of low-use major spare parts was excessive. Internal control deficiencies which fostered the excessive inventory included: (1) Ross had set stock levels without considering such factors as consumption or projected needs; and (2) the Department had not reviewed inventory quantities when appraising Ross' property management. The Albuquerque Operations Office (AL) agreed to take the corrective actions recommended in the report.

Conclusions and recommendations based on interim report (open access)

Conclusions and recommendations based on interim report

This memorandum discusses five key issues that initial interviews have brought into focus: The preoccupation of the public with nuclear waste disposal, the credibility of public opinion polls addressing nuclear power, the unlikelihood of dramatic change in opinion by nuclear critics, difficulties in communicating technical concepts, and the problem of focussing narrowly or broadly on policy issues.

The application of the ADSP-21020 40-bit floating point DSP microprocessor in a digital Doppler radar (open access)

The application of the ADSP-21020 40-bit floating point DSP microprocessor in a digital Doppler radar

A continuous wave doppler radar system has been designed which is portable, easily deployable and can be remotely controlled. The system is immune to ground clutter and is used for wind speed detection and direction determination. Nearly real time digital signal processing is performed by an Analog Devices ADSP-21020, a 40-bit floating point Digital Signal Processing (DSP) microprocessor. This paper provides an overview of the design of the system including the radio frequency (RF) to digital interface. The various DSP detection algorithms are discussed and compared to system performance and sensitivity. Finally, DSP performance is compared to the performance of an earlier system using Analog Device's ADSP-2100. 6 refs.

Design considerations for a scintillating plate calorimeter for SDC (open access)

Design considerations for a scintillating plate calorimeter for SDC

As scintillating plate calorimetry is a viable option for the SDC detector, it is imperative that the phase space of passive and active materials be explored in a systematic fashion. To this end, we have examined several different configurations of passive and active materials as a function of incident energy, to see what the resolution and e/h characteristics are of each of these configurations. These studies have been carried out using the CALOR89 Monte Carlo simulation package. 3 figs., 5 tabs.

Quantitative film radiography (open access)

Quantitative film radiography

We have developed a system of quantitative radiography in order to produce quantitative images displaying homogeneity of parts. The materials that we characterize are synthetic composites and may contain important subtle density variations not discernible by examining a raw film x-radiograph. In order to quantitatively interpret film radiographs, it is necessary to digitize, interpret, and display the images. Our integrated system of quantitative radiography displays accurate, high-resolution pseudo-color images in units of density. We characterize approximately 10,000 parts per year in hundreds of different configurations and compositions with this system. This report discusses: the method; film processor monitoring and control; verifying film and processor performance; and correction of scatter effects.
